Learn Azure Serverless Functions in a Weekend - Azure Functions to Collect Feedback and Store in Database

This video tutorial covers the interaction between Azure functions and SQL databases. It begins with an introduction to the concept, followed by setting up a database to store student reviews. The tutorial then demonstrates how to implement an Azure function using VS Code, focusing on creating an HTTP trigger to insert reviews into the database. The function is tested to ensure it processes requests correctly, including handling bad records. The session concludes with a discussion on managing these records and hints at future tasks.

What is the main purpose of the Azure function discussed in the lecture?

• To collect and store customer reviews

• To generate sales reports

• To manage user authentication

• To send emails to customers

• Student ID and Course Name

• Review Text and Rating

• Time of Review and Review Text

• A default review is inserted

• It is stored as a bad record

• The request is rejected

• The request is ignored

What is the response message when the Azure Function processes a request?

• Request failed

• Request is processed

• Error occurred

What is the instructor's view on error handling in the Azure Function?

• It is crucial but not covered in detail

• It is the main focus of the lecture

• It should be ignored

• It is not important

What future improvement is suggested for handling bad records?

• Store them in a separate table

• Manually delete them

• Ignore them

• Automatically clean them every hour
